CHARLES A. BRYANT, OF WAKEFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS.

EGG-BEATER.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 319,191, dated June 2,1885.

Application filed September 4, 1884.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, CHARLES A. BRYANT, of Wakefield, in the county ofMiddlesex and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and ImprovedEgg-Beater, of which the following is a full, clear, and exactdescription.

The object of my invention is to provide a new and improved egg-beaterwhich is simple in construction, strong and durable, can be operatedeasily, and beats the eggs very thoroughly.

The invention consists in the peculiar construction and arrangement ofparts, as hereinafter fully described, and pointed out in the claims.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming part ofthis specification, in which similar letters of reference indicatecorresponding parts in all'the figures.

Figure 1 is aface view of my improved eggbeater. Fig. 2 is alongitudinal elevation of a modification of the spirally-twisted wires.Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the nut. Fig. 4. is a plan view ofthe under side of the same. i

A strong wire, A; is bent to form the frame, the top being provided witha wire handleloop, B, and the bottom being bent upward to form a pointedprong, O.

The free end D of the wire at the bottom of the handle is held to theother part of the bandle by a band, E.

On the end D of the wire a sleeve, F, is secared to form asocket forreceivingthe upper pointed end of one of two wires,GG, twisted togetherspirally, the lower ends of the said wiresbeing flattened and bent toformscrolls H, which are united by a cross-piece, J, having a recess inits under side, forming-a socket for receiving the pointed end of theprong O.

(No model.)

The united wires can thus turn or revolve on the ends D and O of thewire A, forming the frame.

On the spirally-twisted wires a hollow nut, K, is held, the bottom ofwhich is provided with an opening, L, a trifle larger in size than thecross-section of the wires G G. By working the nut K up and down, thetwisted wires G G and the scrolls H H,formed by the same, are whirledabout alternately in opposite directions, and thus beat the eggs veryrapidly.

As the heater is made of wire it will not break when dropped.

As the scrolls are revolved in opposite directions the eggs are beatenvery thoroughly in a very short time, and as there is no gearing in thebeater it is not apt to get out of order.

Having thus described myinvention, what I claim as new, and desire tosecure by Letters Patent, is-

1. In an egg-beater, the combination, with a wire frame provided with anupwardly-bent lower end and with a socket in its upper portion, ofspirally-twisted wires terminating in scrolls at their lower ends, andprovided with a socket for the lower end of the frame, substantially asherein shown and described.

2. In an egg-beater, the combination, with the wire frame A, of thesleeve F at the top of the same, the spirally-twisted wires G G, havingtheir lower ends bent to form scrolls H, the cross-piece J,unitingthem,and the nut K on the spiral wires, substantially as herein shownand described.
